Ukelele not working on High Sierra

I'm trying to switch to a Hungarian keyboard layout in High Sierra.

I downloaded Ukelele for this and got a custom layout which I installed and then selected in System Preferences.

Unfortunately this does not work nor selecting the "Appl" Hungarian QWERTY layout. They keys on my keyboard enter the same thing regardless of what I choose here, even with other languages.

Any ideas?

You should have no problem making Hungarian Qwerty work. Have you verified that the correct layout is showing in the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen when you are trying to type, like this:

enter image description here

To see the "flag" menu, you check the box for "Show Input Menu in Menu Bar" in system preferences/keyboard/input sources.

(Selecting something in system preferences/keyboard/input source does not accomplish anything other than show you a picture of the layout).

Ukelele is for making a custom keyboard layout. Do you really need to do that for some reason?
